I like to code

AI code editors are introducing the chicken and the egg problem. How are you supposed to instruct a coding agent to make good software if you don’t know the right things to ask for? Why would you learn the programming concepts if AI is so good at writing code?

Making content for your app is hard but if your app name/concept also happens to be a trend you can just repost videos other people have created. I made my own scheduling tool for this and this is literally my flow.

This has to be one of the dumbest takes i’ve ever seen Opus is literally trained on the code that contains the vulnerabilities And who will want to sit there for hours or days waiting for their node_modules folder to be vibe coded
i really don't think we need npm anymore opus 4.5 can duplicate basically anything from scratch and actually have full control over the code easy way to avoid supply chain attacks

I think this is a bad take. Sourcing and reselling a useful product is relatively easy. Creating and distributing useful software is fucking hard.
thing about mobile apps is it’s basically drop shipping in 2025, and i mean this in the best way… you only need 1 to hit one vid hits viral and you have a profitable business overnight. you find 1 working format & you can milk it. it may take 100 iterations but its $0 to try

I had a new “software engineer” tell me that self hosting mysql and rolling my own auth was bad and that I should use clerk and convex instead. I told him stop using X so much.

Today was my last day at AWS. After months of integrating AI agents to improve and maintain critical services, a very minor outage occurred. Unfortunately it was all that was needed to seal my fate. I’m looking for new roles! Preferably other large cloud providers or mission

New interview question just dropped: How would you design a distributed system that stays online even when AWS goes down?

I'm 21 and one of my projects just crossed $1 million in revenue. Solo developer. No investors. No debt. Just a couple other 20 something year old partners and a bunch of time invested. What a year it has been.

My non-technical coworkers say “just ask chat” all the time
No. They’re referencing “chat” as the audience. It’s a meme. Stay in the bubble, you’re not safe outside
